Oh, Canada. Bless your heart. I’ve seen tourism ads featuring specific destinations (see Visit California) but this has got to be the first time a province of Canada blasted a whole country in a commercial. Check it out below then scroll down for more…
I don’t think their ad comes across exactly how they intended. For instance, if the Buffalo Bills aired a commercial in Kansas City telling viewers how the Chiefs has off-the-books deals with referees, all it will do is two things; 1) Solidify KC fans to support the Chiefs even more, and 2) show that Buffalo *might be* a little scared of the Chiefs. Like, what’s in it for you Buffalo? That’s the vibe I get from the Ontario, Canada commercial. There’s more to the ad than can be fit in a short commercial but it’s obvious that the U.S. is doing something right. Canada has such strong feelings about the tariff deal that they called on a generally beloved president to appeal to Americans. In other words, Canada is on its heels, on the defense. So unless they’re playing chess and I’m stuck on a checkers board, I’m going to support my country and my president, instead of assuming you, Canada, have altruistic intentions for Americans.
For the full Reagan speech, see the video below.
Instead of Ronald Reagan, they definitely should have gone a step further. If they were serious, they would’ve called on the political expert– Robert De Niro. 🤪
Just watch how he swoops in with such enthusiasm to save the day in Virginia.
